Seems like it’s aimed at business class. Businesses certainly don’t care about externalities they don’t foot the bill for.

Right, but does eg slack actually use any of that? It’s not a great native client by any stretch—it doesn’t use a native UI, it’s not particularly snappy, and it doesn’t do any special integration. So, it seems that electron is mostly a way to distinguish certain sites from others, not that they provide a better experience.

Granted I do like the distinct app icon. But electron should mean more than that to qualify as meaningfully native.

It’s really not clear what the electron app even provides over the same app in chrome. Its own icon, sure, but the behavior is just as bad as on the web—just take slack for example.

These are all true things about any language on earth, except perhaps the evolving part.

Well, this is true today at least. What are you surprised at?
